Quick look at the Tamiya 95689 Jr Thunder Shot Mk.II

What the Jr Thunder Shot Mk.II brings to the track

The Tamiya 95689 Jr Thunder Shot Mk.II Asia Challenge 2025 is a Mini 4WD kit designed for competitors who want a compact, track-capable buggy. It blends a race-oriented silhouette with practical tuning options.

Shell design and real world cues

Its light smoke plastic shell and Asia Challenge decals echo rally styling while keeping the silhouette low and streamlined. The clear sticker set highlights the model without adding excess weight.

MS chassis features explained

Using the MS chassis gives a modular platform and double-shaft motor fitment. That layout is suited to riders who swap parts and try different gear ratios to match circuit demands.

Performance tuning and parts

Racers commonly upgrade to higher torque motors, precision gear sets, and alternate tyre compounds. The included 3.5:1 gearing gives a middle ground between quick acceleration and sustained top speed.

Assembly and serviceability

The snap-fit construction simplifies the build and makes it easy to access drivetrain parts for cleaning and tuning between heats.
